History
The neo-Gothic style church was built in 1932. In 1934, a diocesan administration building was built near the church. On May 10, 1936, the temple was consecrated by Bishop Joseph Kutka. On the occasion of the consecration of the temple , Pope Pius XI presented a parish guardian to the parish. In 1944, the temple was significantly damaged during the fighting - two towers were destroyed, which were restored after the war.
There are three bells on the bell tower. The oldest bell, which is a monument of national importance, dates from 1665 and is no longer valid.
